Landmark...Don't know but maybe a good thing - blondie


Posted: Dec 17, 2012

May be a good thing that Landmark has ignored my resume.  They may not be a good company, I don't know.  I have sent a resume with 5 years experience in acute care and clinic, formerly worked at Nuance, have worked on Escription, which is what they want, and they completely ignore both resumes sent.  Yet they are still advertising for immediate need for MTs.  Doesn't may sense but maybe God's doing me a favor.  What's up with that?  

They always ignore me too and I have 20 years - bah humbug

You are a horribly miserable person and it must be excruciating to look in the mirror every day.
Not at all. I am a realist, just stating the facts of our - lives as MTs. nm

Years of experience does matter! You learn a lot from experience.

Might as well just shut down the board then.

I was trying to make Blondie feel a little better - bah humbug

[ In Reply To ..]
about being ignored as she said she had 5 years experience, so I mentioned I had 20 years experience and was still ignored. The phrase "So What" for your info is childish.
Thank you Bah Humbug....NM - blondie

Geeez....you have some issues dont you?

Probably a good thing, only pay 3.0 CPL - Baby

I make more than that there - BusyMT

The pay at Landmark varies by account. I actually make 4 cpl for editing and 8 cpl for straight typing and make a very decent living. Yes, they do have some accounts that only pay 3 cpl for editing, but they do also have others that pay more. I'm very happy there. Just my 2 cents.

Probably that attitude is not getting you a response - beentheredonethat

Blondie had no attitude but - you do

To Blondie-Landmark-sense of entitlement? - beentheredonethat

[ In Reply To ..]
My point about your attitude is this: [May be a good thing that Landmark has ignored my resume. They may not be a good company, I don't know. I have sent a resume with 5 years experience in acute care and clinic, formerly worked at Nuance, have worked on Escription, which is what they want, and they completely ignore both resumes sent. Yet they are still advertising for immediate need for MTs. Doesn't may sense but maybe God's doing me a favor. What's up with that?]

I've applied with over 20 companies during my career that have NEVER responded to my resume and/or contact about a job, with over 30 years experience, etc. Companies don't owe us a reply, if they do great, if not move to the next one. I've never taken it personally.

That was my point. Merry Christmas

Good Thing

Well good thping I did that extra hour yesterday...my line count was lower than normal even with the hour...would have been horrible without it.  Hate unfamiliar accounts.  Plus, one of my accounts has gone to a lot of partial dictations.  Swear my counts have gone down since then.  They come over with practically no ADT that you have to fill in from what info they give...which is time consuming, time I am not being paid for! ...


One Good Thing I Can Stay About MT...
Feb 01, 2012

Is that it has made me not embarrased to talk about "embarrassing" medical stuff.  Also, before I became an MT, I wouldn't want to bring up certain things to doctors because I have pretty severe social anxiety and get embarrassed easiliy (haven't I used that word enough times in this post, lol). And while I still have SA, that has completely gone away. MT has helped me see that my body is just a body, and doctors have seen it all before and much, much worse tha ...

Silver lining, anyone? ...

2014 - Not A Good Year For This MT — But I Found A Good Fit (finally)
Jan 12, 2015

Rarely do I start discussion on mtstars - however, 2014 was a particularly challenging year for myself - an experienced MT/Editor (15+ years). However, I realize that many other MTs may be in the same position, i.e., having many years devoted to working at the Big MTSOs including “the M,” and “the N” and (now to be included) “the T” following close behind in total numbers of MT/Editors on staff. (Hint: Sure most of you know the M, the N and the T - and the names have been int ...


One More Thing!
Mar 11, 2010

Just one more thought.  I have never, ever, known anyone who has left Medquist or Spheris and regretted it.  They may bounce back and forth just to get by, but in the long run, when they are finally finished, they are finished.  For all of those MTs who don't want to start over, please don't take that attitude.  I did and it only got worse and when I did change it wasn't that bad at all.  Again, could it get any worse?  ...

They wasted no time in sending me labels to ship the computer back, though.  Oh well.. they don't want the monitor, or mouse, or keyboard, so I'm keeping those! ...

Is There Such A Thing As

Urine welkenton?  Not sure of spelling, since I'm not sure it's really a word.  They could also be saying welkington.  That's what the dictation sounds like and I've listened to it several times on numerous days.  Can't find a reference to it anywhere and I've tried many variations.  Wondering if it's a really old term or if I'm completely misunderstanding.   Any help would be greatly appreciated.

One More Thing Before I Go

I do believe now that they are starting to target those of us who were making 10/6.  In the past, on my old accounts, I was audited no more than once a month.  If I failed an occasional audit, they would wait another month to see how I did on that one and since I always passed, no action was taken.  There was also no action after I took more than the allowable time off.  Then, at the beginning of November, I was moved to another BOB.  After being on the account for less ...

Apr 01, 2015

Just had a doctor dictate "potassium 40 mg," (should have been mEq) and then further down, "Levemir 40 mg" (should have been units). If I had not left blanks for them, that would have been 6 points off. It also compelled me to use my allotment of blanks for that report! But they, of course, do not get penalized for their mistakes. On the other hand, our pay is docked. There is a double standard here that needs to be changed. ...

OMG! This May Just Be The Most Annoying Thing

that I have had in a dictation, and I am sure that the dictator (PA-C)  is annoyed as well.  It's always annoying when she chitty-chats with the "girls in the office" while dictating, but in this dictation, one of the girls is mocking back everything the dictator says and continues to do so, after a little chuckle from dictator each time, to the point where the dictator finally has to tell her that this is important, it is for an attorney and she cannot mess it up.  ...
